”Crate engines” are generally brand new engines from the factory in a ”crate” or suitable container. The term is derived from new engines packaged in crates for shipping and storage from the factory for resale.

Crate engines come in a variety of forms. Although the term in our case refers to mostly new engines that are considered to be stock original replacement equipment. Lots of crate engines sold are for vintage and muscle cars and hot rod applications. In certain cases, on non production engines, a crate engine may be rebuilt only by a company certified by APRA (American Parts Remanufacturers Association). Which means lots of crate motors go into the 1960’s hot rods like the Camaro in the picture. The engine in that picture is an L-72 version of the 427 cubic inch Chevrolet. 425 raw horsepower.

As you can see, very popular with the hot rod bunch. Also popular as an upgrade for vehicles that do hard work such as towing a trailer or boat.
